Homemade facial coffee scrub for oily skin (with an option for dry skin):
Mix 1 table spoon of coffee grounds (from freshly brewed coffee) with 1 table spoon of plain yogurt. Gently massage your face with it (for one minute or two), then, rinse with lukewarm water.
If you have dry skin, you can make similar face scrub, but only, use a plain cream instead of yogurt.
Another variation of homemade facial coffee scrub for all skin types:
Mix 1 table spoon of oatmeal with warm water (couple of table spoons of warm water will do) and wait for 5-10 minutes, till oats turn into a soft paste; then, add 1 table spoon of coffee grounds (from freshly brewed coffee). Now, if your skin is dry, add 1 table spoon of cream, if your skin is oily or normal, add 1 table spoon of plain yogurt. Gently massage your face with this scrub for couple of minutes, then, rinse with lukewarm water. Your skin will feel nourished and soft, it will look healthy and glowing.
Coffee ice cubes:
If you want to give your skin a healthy glow, then, make some ice cubes from your freshly made morning coffee and wipe your face with it every morning. Applying ice cubes on your face will improve blood circulation, give your skin a fresh glow, shrink pores, prevent aging and appearance of wrinkles.
Note: Applying ice cubes directly on the skin might be harsh for certain skin types and can cause stress on delicate capillaries under the skin (especially, if your skin is sensitive), therefore, you can wrap an ice cube in a wash cloth before wiping your face with it. Avoid applying ice cubes on your face, if your skin is sensitive and is prone to various irritations and redress.
Regular use of facial and body scrubs can make your skin look/feel healthier and softer, because this treatment can help remove dead cells from the surface of the skin, thus, improving natural cells’ renewal process. Of course, you can buy a ready made scrub in the shop, but why not to use great ingredients straight from our kitchen?
